While there are no statistics on how many men have a plus-size fetish, pure anecdotal evidence suggests that there are plenty of ’em. The scariest part, though, is not knowing if the person you’re dating is one of them.  We asked sex and relationship expert Megan Stubbs on her thoughts on plus-size fetishization, and what to look out for if you suspect your partner is solely in it for your weight. “Inanimate” doesn’t have to mean being sexually attracted to a shoe or a basketball, though. “Some people fetishize fat women,” Stubbs explained. “Just Google things like squashing or face-sitting porn and you’ll see a wide range of primarily larger women being fetishized for their physical nature.” “Are they interested in the body you live in or the person driving the machine?” Stubbs emphasized. “If they’re asking things like how much you weigh or what your measurements are and they aren’t tailoring a dress for you, that should give you pause.” Don’t forget: Every part of you is beautiful, and yes, your size should be celebrated. However, when that seems to be the only thing that your partner focuses on, that’s a red flag. Additionally, if something feels off or wrong, go with your gut!  “If it feels weird, check in, ask questions for clarification, express your feelings, and if need be, check out,” Stubbs suggested.  “You are so much more than what you present to the outside world.” We couldn’t agree more!
